Apartments for rent in Mound House, NV

Mound House is one of the many communities in the Reno area that flourished as a result of the silver mining boom, and though those days are gone, apartment residents still take pride in their town's vibrant and colorful history.

The Comstock silver trade once fueled the economy in Mound House, and the city in the past has been an important stop on a number of area rail lines that carried silver throughout the region. The famous Virginia & Truckee Railroad once wound its way through Mound House at the height of the silver boom, and the Carson & Colorado once took residents from Mound House all the way to California. The famed Pony Express mail service of the 19th century once had a stop in Mound House, and apartment residents today can still view the historic marker that sits where the stop once was.

Though the silver mining industry faded away near the end of the 1800s, mining continues to be an important aspect in the lives on Mound House apartment residents today. Since the turn of the last century, locals have been working at a nearby gypsum mill and mining facilities, which still operate today. However, Mound House apartment renters work at a variety of local businesses, industries and companies, and their connections to when Nevada served as a cornerstone of the Old West remain a vital source of community pride. It's also a big reason - along with wide-open spaces - that visitors to Mound House become long-term apartment residents.
